“You must show me that you can take care of your family.” Hulu has revealed the first look teaser trailer for an Australian streaming series called The Clearing, which is described as a “gripping psychological thriller about a religious cult wreaking human havoc.” It will be streaming on Hulu to watch at the end of May, in just over a month from now. This is an adaptation of the book In The Clearing by J.P. Pomare. Set against a ticking clock, this “haunting” & “atmospheric” thriller pits a ruthless cult against a mother’s love, revealing that our darkest secrets are the hardest ones to leave behind. This driven mother tries to prevent a cult from gathering more innocent children. Starring an impressive cast lead by Teresa Palmer, Miranda Otto, and Guy Pearce, with Julia Savage, Hazem Shammas, Mark Coles Smith, Kate Mulvany, Xavier Samuel, and Claudia Karvan. This blonde-haired cult seems so disturbing and wicked. Another true crime series, which is what everyone seems to be watching these days. A bit too dark for me right now.
Here’s the official trailer (+ poster) for Hulu’s series The Clearing, direct from Hulu’s YouTube:
